How to disable FAST5 output and generate only POD5 in Nanopore?
While running a long-read sequencing experiment with Oxford Nanopore, I configured the startup settings to output POD5 files only (FAST5 generation disabled). However, FAST5 files were still generated during the run.
What could cause this behavior, and how can I enforce POD5-only output?

Are you using the latest MinKNOW version? FAST5 files were deprecated some time back.
I'm with GenoMax here, latest versions have completely disabled fast5 output.
I have not checked, but I presumed I was using the latest version... Thank you for your help!
